Original subtitles

We got back at the same time.

Tara…

Oh my God.

Look at me when I talk to you.

Look at me.

Oh God, Richard.

What's your name?

Answer me!

Why are you here?

And you're armed.

Are you kidding me?

What are you looking for?

Fucking answer me!

My God.

Why are you here?

Do you want to hurt us?

Is that your boy?

-Is he your son? -Leave him alone.

Wait.

My name's Alice Lambert.

Two years ago my daughter was kidnapped.

-That's nothing to do with me. -Two days ago,

when paying a ransom, they pretended your boy was my girl.

-What is this bullshit? -I swear it's true.

I saw him in a car.

Ask him.

Ask him.

Nolan?

Nolan, come here.

Do you know this lady?

Do you remember? I saw you in the car.

Two days ago, remember?

Who with?

It's the truth.

What do you mean? Two days ago in a car?

Yes, that's right.

Come on.

Dylan, go to your room and stay there!

Richard.

-Richard. -Sit down.

Richard's fine, aren't you, Richard?

I'll ask my wife if you're telling the truth.

Hello, this is Katarina's voicemail,

please leave a message after the beep.

Are you saying my wife's lying?

I don't know but... it's like I said,

Your son was in the kidnappers' car.

It's not possible!

Two days ago, they went to her friend Deborah's!

I was on my way back from Ringis.

Do you know why we're here?

Your address was used by the kidnapper.

Katarina has nothing to do with your daughter,

I can't believe it.

She left early.

To Deborah's.

Now, I'm a bit worried.

Are you a cop?

My wife's in trouble.

Are you coming?

It's our only lead.

Pavel, I'll be back in an hour. Katarina

If Katarina comes, tell her to call me.

Okay.

Kids, stay with aunt Maud,

-I'm going to get your mom. -Okay, dad.

Still no answer.

I've got GPS trackers on my cars. I've had a car stolen once.

The cops weren't very efficient.

No offense, by the way.

Follow the blue dot.

I know how it works.

Thierry, your wife,

did she often go out at night like that?

What are you supposing?

We need to know what the link is.

Where is she from?

I mean, how did you meet?

On the Internet.

I know what you think.

Being a trucker isn't great for meeting women.

A colleague married a girl from Kosovo so I signed up.

Katarina and I got on really well.

She was lonely.

She lived in a farm in Belarus.

After a few months, she wanted to meet me.

I suppose she asked you for money?

No, she insisted on paying for the plane herself.

I fetched her from the airport.

The first day...

We were married three weeks later. Dylan was born a year later.

It was the best day of my life, seeing that little boy.

Sorry, that's all me.

What about you? How did you meet?

Take the next left.

Then straight on.

Well, Samuel Armand?

-We're at their house. -And?

He had an accomplice. It's empty.

They left during the night.

-What? -Yeah, of course.

We must find them. We have to.

I'll call you back.

He was there, right in front of me.

Okay, tell me about it.

He invited you in for coffee?

I make the best coffee in the neighborhood.

No, thanks, really.

Then you called and he got away.

What a fool.

-A fool? -Yes.

Had you gone in, he'd have killed you.

Is that your way of cheering me up?

Yes. When your partner saves your life, it cheers you up.

Tessier, shut your face.

-Which way? -Straight on.

-Okay. -Go through the amber light.

The signal's stopped nearby.

Go straight and take the first right.

-Do you have a photo of her? -Yes, always.

-Pretty, isn't she? -Very pretty.

I wouldn't let anyone hurt her.

Is she still not there?

Do you think she suspects something?

I don't know.

Wait. She's here.

Tell her it's not personal.

That's her.

Katarina.

-Thierry? -Are you okay?

Why are you here? Where are the kids?

At home with my sister.

Where's my daughter?

Answer her.

Is it here?

All good.

Come in.

Why are you here?

Where is Deborah?

-There's no sign of Tara. -Alice.

He took my daughter.

Do you know him?

Do you know him?

Why did you lie to me?

Who do you fuck here?

Who do you fuck with?

Easy, easy.

It's okay.

Why was my son with him that night?

He forced me to. He threatened me.

Threatened you how?

He said he'd get Nolan after school and hurt him.

Why didn't you tell me?

Because he's my brother.

What do you mean they were there? Who?

Lambert, her friend and another guy.

-I saw them stop Pavel's sister. -Fuck.

The cops can't be far behind.

It's time for a new start.

We'll get a group deal. Do you have the passports?

All we need for a new start.

I'll meet you at the car.

Pavel sent me a message to meet him here.

He can't be dead.

He is.

And so would you be without us.

The killers know you can identify them.

You have to tell us everything.

They have my girl.

They'll kill my family.

Listen to me.

She has to find her child.

Put yourself in her shoes.

Pavel was the only family I had.

We grew up living in the streets.

We'd steal to survive.

He'd force me to...

One day, he said he had a plan.

I just had to fall pregnant.

He wanted to come to France,

to sell my baby to French people.

He said it would pay a lot.

Who's "he"?

I've never seen him.

He had accomplices. Pavel knew them.

Did you sell your child?

I don't even know if it was a boy or a girl.

I wanted a better life.

So to stay in France,

I signed up to that dating site.

Please, forgive me.

Listen, Katarina.

You're the mother of my children. I love you.

I can understand everything. They saved your life.

Tell them everything you know.

Why did they take your daughter?

It's a surrogate mother network, not a kidnapping one.

I don't know.

Do you know them?

Do you know where we can find them?

They keep the pregnant women in the same place.

If I take you, swear you'll stay outside.

Let's go.

It's here. Who is it?

-It's Katarina, open the door. -Where is Pavel?

He's the one who sent me.

I'm coming.

Hello, Pavel sent us.

We have few questions.

-Who's this, Kat? -We mean no harm.

We won't hurt you.

Have you seen a little girl recently?

Nobody's here, just me.

No children?

No, of course. Sorry.

-Do you work alone here? -Yes.

-What's going on? -Are there other women?

They're upstairs.

You can't go up.

Kat, what is this?

-Don't worry. -I'm calling Pavel.

Pavel is dead.

Wait.

Alice.

Have you seen this girl?

She was taken two years ago.

Have you seen her?

She doesn't know.

Who do you work for?

I only know Pavel.

It cannot only be Pavel. There is a treatment room here.

They have a doctor.

They have a gynecologist.

-There must be someone. -I don't know.

Who looks after you? The doctor?

I don't know.

I just have a number to call. I ring twice and the doctor comes.

-Good. Call her then. -No.

Call her, understand? Call her!

They'll kill me! Understand?

Nobody's going to kill you. Calm down.

I said calm down.

Call her!

You have to call her.

Do as I say.

Call the doctor.

And my daughter?

She wasn't there when the ambulance got there.

Are you sure you didn't see the attacker?

No, I already told you...

I turned the dishwasher on,

I got her bottle ready...

Then, it all went blank.

Didn't you hear a window smash?

No.

Chief, I've found it.

The card's for a hotel outside Paris.

Did you call?

Impossible.

It closed 10 years ago.

Why did he have it

if it has been closed for 10 years?

Get the address.

I think that's her.

Yes, that's her.

She's the gynecologist.

Tatiana? She's coming.

Which one is ill?

Irène. She has a bad belly.

-Hello. -Hello.

Can you tell me where it hurts?

My belly's been hurting since this morning.

What language is that?

It feels like contractions.

Polish or Serbian.

-I'm worried. -Okay, I see.

Breathe deeply.

She has to rest and drink lots of water.

Is that it? She...

Doesn't she need to go to the hospital?

I'll think about it.

I'll let you know.

Okay, follow her. No.

She suspects something.

She'll tell them.

They'll kill them, like Pavel.

We can't let them.

No, stay here. What now?

We're going to lose her.

We have to go. I have an idea.

Yes, very good, you added that.

Great, thank you.

-Hello -Hello, Edith. It's Alice.

Alice?

I got your message.

Can you help me?

Yes, of course.

You can't tell the police.

Yes, I'm listening.

A snack at this time?

Excuse me. Can I borrow your phone?

My daughter's trying to call me but my battery's empty.

Of course.

I have two girls too.

I understand, especially since my divorce.

I don't get to see them often.

We have a problem.

-Are you sure she was lying? -Positive.

I think she was forced to call me.

-Who, the police? -Of course, who else?

Right. Do exactly as I say.

Can I help you?

No thanks.

-Thanks. -My pleasure.

-What did she want? -Sorry?

Come on, Richard.

My wife borrowed your phone.

So?

I want to know who she called. Can I see it?

She's not your wife.

Sorry?

Where's your ring?

I've kept mine for two years after my divorce.

Answer.

Answer.

Shit.

Can I tell you something?

When I eat this kind of food,

I find it hard to digest.

It makes me sleepy.

-Not you? -No.

Yes, it does.

Is he okay?

He's had a long day.

A strong coffee, please.

LAST NUMBER DIALLED

I need... How can I say this?

I need you to get rid of the hotel staff.

Great minds think alike. All of them?

I'm afraid so.

Can we add Dr Lambert and her friend?

Just start with the hotel.

I don't like orders, Stéphane.

That's a lot of people.

So few...

The police are here.

DCI Tessier.

Major Amzaoui. How can I help?

We're enquiring into a kidnapping.

A lead brought us here. What's going on?

A fire was shot.

It's abandoned so we thought it was kids or dealers.

Have you searched it?

Yes, we found clothes, some food...

So it was a squat?

We're not sure.

There was also medical equipment.

Do you know many squatters who leave in a taxi?

This man works on a work site.

From his crane, he saw something strange.

Two taxis came to pick up some girls. Here? How many?

Five or six.

Fuck. I'll call the depots.

It can't be a common pick-up point.

When I saw the taxis, I wanted to join you.

Richard, we've got to get these guys.

We'll deal with it calmly, okay?

Yeah, I like how calm you are.

Are we following Alice?

I still have the GPS signal.

-No. -No?

Patrick?

It's me. I need you to trace a number for me? 06 50 96 45 25.

Okay, I'll wait.

Ah, hello.

Hello.

-Thank you dearly. -I hope there's...

enough rooms for all these future mothers.

Don't catch a cold.

Careful.

Detective Romano?

Yes, Delaunay.

Can we talk?

Let me explain...

What medical equipment did you find?

I'm no specialist but it seemed like a gynecology table.

Alright.

Thanks.

I know where they are?

Already?

Edouard Delaunay called. They're at the castle.

-Thank you, Major. -Thanks a lot.

Shit. What now?

On to the next.

Mr Bacard, right.

Are you sure of the address?

Okay.

What a bitch.

The bitch, the bitch.

What a fucking bitch!

She had a brother and a baby. She never said anything in seven years.

What would you do?

Watch the road, please.

Yeah, sorry.

Can I call? It's important.

Yes.

INCOMING 1

I know who you are.

I'm hanging up.

And I know what you do.

If you hurt Alice Lambert, I'll kill you.

-Got it? -I know what you're capable of,

Mr Millot. You can threaten me,

but if I listen to your voice carefully,

I can sense that you're afraid, right?

Let's settle this between us.

I'm listening.

You know where I am?

-Yes. -I'm waiting.

Understood.

-Hello? -It's me.

-Where are you? -Are you following her?

Yes, she's right ahead.

What happened?

She used a phone to call a Mr Bacard.

-Who is he? -A lawyer.

He runs an adoption association.

Adoption?

You think Tara went through him?

His office is where we traced the ransom to.

We're nearly there.

Listen to me.

She's very dangerous.

They know you're following her.

Understand?

I can't stop.

Not now.

You have to stop.

We'll meet at Bacard's--

Hello? Richard?

Shit.

I have a few questions.

Mrs Vanech, right?

I'm a police officer.

May I see your card?

It's about the pregnant woman you just saw.

That's confidential.

At the hotel outside Paris.

Then you called your accomplice,

Bacard, a lawyer.

It's about the illegal adoption network.

You take children from vulnerable women and sell them on the black market.

You open or I carry on?

Of course you don't understand a thing.

You can't tell me where you were.

And you're saying your daughter-in-law calls you

brings you these wonderful, pregnant ladies in a taxi,

but you don't bother asking what she's up to?

Is that right?

-Yes, Chief Detective. -Right.

I've known you to be more curious and less trusting of your daughter-in-law,

Mrs Delaunay.

How does it feel to run a maternity ward?

Fun?

She won't say a thing, and the others don't understand.

I can translate if you promise not to worry them.

Worry them?

They're in deep shit.

They should be very worried.

You're in the same shit. You should be worried too.

Tessier, I've got it.

If you don't help me, I can't help you or them.

There's a doctor, a woman, but I don't know her name.

-Is anyone else here? -No.

You're armed. What do you want?

A girl was kidnapped two years ago She went through your network.

We're not kidnappers.

It's not how we work.

Stop it. I know what you're up to.

You're trafficking women's babies.

Trafficking. There is no trafficking.

And the babies are better off with their new parents.

Yes, we make money but we're not the only ones.

-There are no victims. -There are... me.

My daughter was taken.

Tell me how it works.

Where do the children go?

How should I know?

I'm a gynecologist.

Answer me. Where do they go?

All the surrogate mothers are volunteers.

We aren't a kidnapping agency.

They need papers. Who takes care of that?

Is it Bacard?

Listen,

even if it were true,

there's no paper trace.

You'll never find her.

That's the last thing I want to hear.

Call your friend, Bacard.

Tell him to come here now.

I want the list of everyone who adopted in the last two years.

So call him!

Drop the gun.

Put the gun down.

Hello, Alice.

Did Bacard send you?

-Are you going to do it here? -Wait.

Our turn.

It isn't the policy of our association.

That's how it is. Yes?

Please hold... Hello.

I told you I'd be first. Lifts are pointless.

Is Mr Bacard in his office?

Yes but he isn't to be disturbed.

You'll have to wait like everybody else.

I don't understand. He was here 10 minutes ago.

-Are you here for an adoption? -Not really, no.

-What floor is this? -11th floor.

It's fucking high.

Security?

She's calling security. Let's go.

...in Mr Bacard's office.

Alice. Alice.

Yes, it's Alice.

Remember me?

Bacard told us

not to lay a hand on Dr Lambert.

Shame. I'm with her now...

and her daughter.

They're still alive for now.

Want the address?

Look up Denise Vanech in Suresnes.

If you're not here in 30 minutes, they've had it.

They have Alice.

If you see a cop, we kill her and split.

Lisa, if it goes wrong,

don't forget what we said. I don't care what people think.

Everything will be fine.

Let's finish this and split.

Is this what you want?

How silly of me.

You want your daughter.

She's grown so much.

There's something I don't understand, Alice,

If you love your daughter,

why did you give us fake notes?

Because you dropped us in the shit.

I have no house because of you.

What will I do with her?

After I've killed your guy,

I'm going to kill you.

Then Tara won't have a mommy.

-Oscar, stop playing please. -But mom.

Oscar, stop. Listen to your mother.

I want to finish my game.

You've had your 20 minutes.

-Richard? -I have no time, write this down.

There's a lawyer, a certain Bacard.

He runs an illegal adoption agency disguised as an association.

What's his name? Bacard?

Yes. Listen.

If it goes wrong, make sure the cops investigate him.

Tara may have gone through them.

What do you mean "if it goes wrong"?

Richard, what are you up to?

We're nearly there.

Shit.

What's wrong?

No, nothing.

That's my wife's car.

Park just here.

Discreetly.

You're insane having that in your car.

I told you I had some gear.

No, Thierry, nothing's going boom.

-From now on, do exactly as I say, okay? -Okay.

No, look me in the eyes... Okay? When did she arrive at the hotel?

She's Polish not Russian. About three months.

How did she end up there? Did someone take her there?

Yes, that's her.

She's the doctor from the hotel.

Is this the doctor from the hotel?

Is this her?

Got her address?

-Yeah. -Let's go.

I think he's here.

But he's not moving.

-What? -He's not moving.

Stay here.

Why isn't he getting out?

Call him.

It's ringing Where are you?

Let Alice and Tara out.

No, if you want them, come get them.

You're in no place to negotiate.

You have 10 seconds or I'll kill them both.

10… 9…

8… 7…

6…

He's coming.

He has a shotgun.

Get out and drop your gun.

Hello?

On the roof!

Sam.

Sam.

Don't move!

Don't move!

Shit. Sam!

Sam, answer me.

Answer me, where's my girl? Where's my girl?

I don't know.

You're lying.

-Where is she? -I never knew.

No, you're lying. You're fucking lying!

You've been wrong from the start. I've never had her.

-You have it all wrong. -You're lying.

-Dr Lambert, move away. -You're lying.

-Let her go. -Help me.

Help me.

Dr Lambert, leave her.

You, drop your gun.

I've done nothing.

I didn't do anything.

-Help me. -It's okay.

Dr Lambert, come here.

Come on, it's over.

She's lying, can't you tell?

She's lying.

She knows where my girl is. She knows.

Edouard?

Oh, you're already back?

Yes.

They've been taken to a center for pregnant women.

That's good.

Are you okay?

Yes, I was a bit cold so...

I made a little fire.

Can you make some tea?

-Yes. -I'll be right there.

Alright.

Sorry, darling.

I'll be with you soon.

Kiss the girls for me.

I love you.

Fatherhood...

It's the most wonderful responsibility, isn't it?

They'll say I was wrong...

that what I did was wrong.

But they're wrong.

It's simple maths.

Many caring people dream of having a family.

And many children live in unbearable poverty.

What other options are there?

Leave them in horrendous orphanages?

Have them brought up by single mothers who can't meet their needs?

Of course not.

Shall we get under cover?

When NGOs save children in danger,

we all applaud.

We all know they need protection.

You're a father too.

Do you remember the first time you saw a school play?

My daughter on stage...

It was as if all the spotlights were on her... only her.

Have you ever felt that? That kind of fulfillment?

I watched the other parents.

It seemed like their child was the only one who existed.

There's nothing more sacred in life.

Isn't that right?

We're all the same.

Are we ready to kill? No.

But to defend our children,

we all would do without hesitation.

There's only one line.
